“8 Warning Signs of Vision Problems in Kids”. This article does a great job summarizing the signs your child may have an undiagnosed vision problem. Many of these signs often are assumed to be normal or go unnoticed. It’s critical not only to a child’s visual development but also his/her psychosocial development that any vision problem is resolved as early on as possible. For this reason, we recommend an eye exam for every child by a pediatrician by at least 6 months of age, followed by 3 year and annually after grade school begins.

This article gives a great outline of the benefits of a diet high in antioxidants such as Glutathione, Alpha Lipoic Acid, resveratrol, carotenoids, Astaxanthin, Lutein, Zeaxanthin, Vitamin C, Vitamin D and Vitamin E.

This video is 20 min long, but definitely worth your time. By eating the right foods, we can prevent angiogenesis (new blood vessel growth) and prevent cancer from developing a blood supply. This is an interesting take on cancer prevention/treatment and gives us information about what we all can do to improve our health.

"The first human trials of new technique that could restore sight to the blind are about to begin"

This fascinating article describes how scientists are now using Optogenetics to modify neurons so they can be turned "on" or "off" using light. The technique has previously been used in mice to erase fearful memories. Now for the first time, scientists will be using the technique on 15 patients who have a retinal condition called retinitis pigmentosa. Patients with retinitis pigmentosa often have significantly reduced night vision, peripheral vision, and eventually may go blind. The hope is that by turning on ganglion cells in the retina, patients who would otherwise only see hand movement at a distance of a couple feet could now be able to recognize tables, chairs, and even large letters again.

"Why You Need To Stop Eating Egg Whites" from Time.com, written by Mandy Oaklander.

While it has long been believed that egg whites were the most nutritious part of an egg and that cholesterol from egg yolks could cause elevated blood cholesterol levels, recent research indicates that we should not be skipping this vital part of the egg. Research now indicates that dietary cholesterol does not impact cholesterol metabolism. “That is, eating foods high in cholesterol does not mean you’ll develop high cholesterol. Some evidence suggests that eggs might even be beneficial for cholesterol by raising levels of HDL cholesterol, the “good” cholesterol that’s linked to a lower risk of heart disease.”

Egg yolks contain both saturated and unsaturated fats needed in our diet, vitamin E, as well as carotenoids (antioxidants). They are rich in carotenoids lutein and zeaxanthin, which help the eye to fight against inflammation. It is important to know that carotenoids (antioxidants) that we get in our diet via fruits, vegetables, as well as eggs need to be eaten with fat in order for the body to adequately absorb them. “A study last year found that when people ate eggs on a raw vegetable salad, their bodies absorbed about 9 times the carotenoids, including lutein and zeaxanthin from the eggs. Because most Americans do not eat sufficient amounts of vegetables each day, it is that much more important that we are absorbing as many of the nutrients that we can with each meal.

As you can see, we should be eating the entire egg, and not just the whites, in order to fully see the benefits of one of the most nutritious foods available.

6/27/16:

Recent studies indicate that higher levels of Vitamin D may lower the risk for Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD). While additional studies are needed before supplementation of Vitamin D is recommended, it is promising to see new developments like these as we look for ways to better protect our eyes.

We were looking for a new eye doctor and found ours. Dr.Bardenwerper was very thorough and knowledgeable. A very pleasant experience. We really liked the idea of having retinal photography instead of dilation of the eyes. The glaucoma test was super fast no more puff puff, always made me jump. Nancy is always pleasant on the phone and in person.
a huge thank you to Erin for helping me pick out new frames. She listened to what I was looking for and helped figure out which frames looked good
on my face, as I could not see well with out my glasses on. Already made our appointments for next year and looking forward to it.

I enjoyed my first experience at Advanced Focus Eyecare! We recently moved to West Bend from Milwaukee and my husband and I were looking for an eyecare provider. We both decided to try Advanced Focus Eyecare and were impressed with the friendliness of everyone we encountered, quick response time via phone and email, and the help I received to help me order contacts. I would recommend this provider to anyone in the area!

I’ve had glasses since the 5th grade. I’ve been to multiple places thru insurance changes to get new 1s when the time came. This place is definitely #1 for experience, quality, & service. From the quick friendly service to the timely matter it took my lenses & frames to come in, they were in before I knew it! Definitely recommend this place to family & friends 👍

I have never seen a couple of the instruments Dr. Bardenwerper used, including taking a photo of the back of the eye and the tool he used to check eye pressure...and was impressed with his technology. I have recommended him and Advanced Focus Eye Health Care to others already! Dr. B was patient, and personable. Nancy the optician was also great.

Great Experience, highly recommend
My experience was so much more than just vision testing and buying glasses...the focus was really monitoring and maximizing health and making life more enjoyable. Dr. Mike took the time to understand my work environment and outdoor lifestyle, and provided vision options that would work best for both work and play. There are a lot of new options in optics of which I wasn't aware. He thoroughly explained the reasoning and results for each test, and answered all my questions. I learned so much more than I knew just going in. New equipment was nice too (no need for dilation or that darn "puff" test!). His assistant Nancy seems to have a talent for picking the most flattering frames right away. I tried a dozen different frames but ended up coming back to her first recommendation. Prices were great, too...got a top brand at a very competitive price.
Follow-up: a few months later, I can't believe what a difference my new glasses are making for me. I didn't realize how much I was struggling with my vision before. Went back to Advanced Focus and bought a second pair for "back-up" in case I lose a pair bouncing around in the wind and the waves. Thanks Dr. Mike!

My first experience with Dr. Bardenwerper was as a customer of an optometrist near my home. A year later I learned he had opened his own practice in West Bend. I did not hesitate driving an extra 30 miles and I scheduled an appointment there.
Dr. Bardenwerper was thorough, professional and as kind and patient as I remembered. This experience was even better than my first, two years earlier. His equipment is cutting edge, and I believe, with the advanced digital documentation of my eyes, he will be able to monitor even the slightest changes in the health of my eyes. This is very important to me because of my advanced age and how quickly things can deteriorate.
His prices were quite competitive, but his technology far exceeds any I've seen at other optometrists. I would not hesitate referring anyone to his practice.

I recently visited Advanced Focus Eyecare for a routine eye exam, and after my great experience, I will definitely be a lifetime customer. Dr. Michael Bardenwerper and his staff helped me achieve better vision, as I was wearing contacts and eye glasses that were not corrected for an astigmatism. After my examination was complete, with my new contacts, I was able to see 20/15, which only a fraction of people are able to achieve. I was tested on state of the art equipment, and Dr. Barderwerper went above and beyond by examining and discussing the overall health of my eye, which is something I have never experienced at another eye clinic. I feel extremely confident that he is looking out for my overall eye health, and not in it to sell me a pair of glasses or contacts. I highly recommend going to Advanced Focus for any eye care needs.

Found Myself a New Eye Dr

I recently visited Advanced Focus as I was looking for a Dr a bit closer to where I work. I had met him at a Chamber Event and was impressed with the office and staff. My visit went well and Dr. B took time to explain the procedure and how my eyes had changed. He then made his recommendation. The girls up front helped me pick out my glasses and told me they would be in within 2 weeks. A day or two shy of two weeks I received a phone call to pick them up. My glasses are a big change for me as I now have digital trifocals. I was told to give it at lease two weeks, as it will take some adjusting. I am adjusting slowly but surely. My husband will also be changing to Dr. B!

I have never had such a complete eye exam in my life before going to Advanced Focus. The Dr. was very professional, listened to what I had to say and explained everything he was doing to my eyes and why. Nancy and Yolanda were wonderful to deal with, and did everything they could to make my visit a pleasant one. My new lenses are wonderful and I could put them right on and wear them without problems. I would recommend them to anyone needing eye care.

Advanced Focus was a wonderful place to go for my checkup. Everyone there was incredibly nice and helpful. The Dr was so nice and very informative. Everything he did he would always explain in detail the how's and why's of. The receptionist I dealt with was super friendly and helpful. The skin scan they offer was definitely an eye opener on health and life choices I make. I will be going back next checkup.

Caring and Thorough

I'm so glad I made the switch to Advanced Focus Eye Care! Dr. Bardenwerper put me in a different type of contact lens at my first visit there a few months ago, and honestly, it has improved the quality of my life. Before then, I'd always worn hard, uncomfortable lenses that left me with bloodshot eyes, and I had no idea that wearing contacts could be anything different. Dr. Bardenwerper cared enough to notice and give me another option.

It was my first time at Advanced Focus Eye care. Everybody was very welcoming.One of the first things that I noticed when I was there was the lady at the front desk I believe her name was Nancy she was so kind and very helpful when I was picking out my glasses. The eye Doctor was all so very helpful he told me all the different kinds of contacts I could get and which ones are better. I definitely recommend Advanced Focus Eye Care.

I love my new glasses with progressive lenses. The prescription seems just right and I like the way they look on me. Advanced Focus Eyecare did a great job from the eye exam to frame selection to the final frame adjustments. They followed up with me a couple of times after the final appointment to make sure I was satisfied. After getting my previous glasses at a "big box" optical department, I'm glad that I went this time to a place with more personalized service.

The BEST

My original Optometrist retired last year. He had been my Dr since I was in my 20's. I had to find a new Optometrist and preferred one closer to home. Luckily, I found Dr Bardenwerper at the Advanced Focus Eyecare.
Dr Bardenwerper is extremely thorough and up-to-date. It is always hard to find someone to come up to the standards of your previous doctor. Dr Bardenwerper DOES not only compare to, but exceeded my expectations in quality, concern, and knowledge.
I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND Dr Bardenwerper and am telling my friends and family how great he is.

The total price scared me a bit. But after receiving my glasses with all the things that were suggested, I love them. I was afraid of bifocals, but really have adjusted and my eyes don't ache at the end of the day.....THANK YOU!
